With a deft, daft touch, this might have been Barbarella for the New Millennium, but it becomes hung up on solemnity as if all its wittering about freedom, oppression and cloning (as usual, completely misrepresented by a scientifically illiterate script) really meant something. Karyn Kusama, who directed Girlfight, is a shade less insistent on shots of the heroine’s tightly-trussed secondary sexual characteristics than a male sleaze-hack might have been, but still doesn’t have much to bring to the party. The original ’toons all had Aeon sneaking into things, and a suitably svelte Theron does all the usual business: dangling from silk streamers attached to a flying saucer, escaping from a cell thanks to a clever pile of busy ball bearings, abseiling into a liquid memory bank, chick-fu one-on-one with a former comrade (Sophie Okenodo) who has extra hands for feet, and performing elegant gymnastic moves while brutally slaughtering five helmeted guards. It dresses up leftover ideas from Orwell and Huxley with tame action-movie licks, absurd costumes (if anyone’s frock deserves censure, it’s the bizarro number Pete Postlethwaite gets strapped into), enough familiar-face-from-British-telly supporting actors to suggest the filmmakers have borrowed the casting director from Holby City and a concrete-campus aesthetic that makes humanity’s futuristic last redoubt seem like a civic centre in Milton Keynes circa 1968.

How else to explain Halle Berry’s career path from Monster’s Ball to Catwoman, and now Charlize Theron’s from Monster to this? Based on a series of stylish cartoon fillers aired on MTV, in which the joke was that the super-competent heroine was always getting killed, Aeon Flux is daffy dystopian science-fiction (like the recent Equilibrium). When a woman wins Best Actress, she is more likely to get a message from her mother saying she looked frumpy in that dress and a half-apologetic “how about doing something in a leotard?” suggestion from her agent.

Teen Wolf: The Movie lands on January 25 with Wolf Pack dropping the day after on Paramount+. Æon Flux does not yet have a release date. After 100 episodes of Teen Wolf, I said, ‘I’m never doing another werewolf story again.’ I was pretty wrong.” As much as I love being the werewolf guy, there are other genres to explore. I’m really excited about my next Paramount+ project, which is Æon Flux, the adaptation of the MTV anime, and telling a sci-fi story. This business is so fickle and so tumultuous that you never really know. “It’s funny, a lot of people ask the question, ‘Where do you see yourself in 10 years?’ I always answer the same thing, which is that I don’t know what I’m doing six months from now. Whilst the move has firmly cemented Davis within the supernatural genre, he admitted that he never imagined making another werewolf saga after six years of pouring his heart into Teen Wolf. Despite also tapping into werewolf folklore, the show has been clear to separate itself from Davis’ previous offering through a seemingly darker and grittier narrative. The story is set during a Californian wildfire which awakens a sea of supernatural beings ultimately leading to a metamorphosis (or two) amongst a group of teenagers.

Also on the cards is a long-awaited Teen Wolf: The Movie, the next chapter in his smash hit werewolf TV series, and brand new offering Wolf Pack starring Sarah Michelle Gellar. Æon Flux is only one of the reel of projects Davis has lined up with Paramount+. The film opened to poor reception with audiences, earning just 39% on the Rotten Tomatoes audience score rating and attracting criticism for its poor ability to pull from the depth of Chung’s work. The director-producer’s version comes years after a Hollywood live-action remake, which starred Charlize Theron, was released back in 2005.
